To get the t-shirt, simply log into Xbox Live. You have to visit while on the console to be eligible.

On the frontpage of Xbox Live, there's an ad for MoP that plays a video. After the video finishes, you can get the free Live avatar gear--but you have to wait until the video is done.

It asks you whether you want a Horde or Alliance shirt, and then you get the item. It's possible to get both shirts.

This promotion is US-only.

Blizzard's Tier 14 Armor Preview

Blizzard released a visual preview of Tier 14 Normal-mode armor today. We recently did a series of class previews, featuring all their Tier 14 Raid, Challenge Mode, and PvP armor sets, as well as their set bonuses:

We found a cool Horde/Alliance promotion going on at Xbox Live--but it ends tonight. Here are the details.Blizzard is giving away free Horde and Alliance tshirts for your Xbox Live avatar until 11:59pm today only.To get the t-shirt, simply log into Xbox Live.

US only? Screw the US, why can't the rest of the world get this?Really grinds my gears when company's release certain game related items only in a certain country, when the game is played world wide.

And the gear sets...meh, they are better than 4.3 gear by a long shot but still...Rogue and Warlock sets are probably the best of the bunch. Monks is pretty sweet but I have nothing to compare it to really with it being their first tier set.

I see no advertisement for Pandaria at all. On the US account.

Edit: It's ONLY on the console, using the web service will get you nothing. That needs to be addressed in the original post. That said, you may download and keep both shirts so long as you have a US-based XBL account.

The advertisement should appear on the Home tab of the Xbox Dashboard. The Horde shirt is as featured in the picture, but the Alliance shirt is navy blue with the golden Stormwind Lion.

Well, I'm not seeing it on the home tab at all. It's just not there. I'm a US console in Central Timezone and a Gold Subscriber.

If you don't see it keep on refreshing your dashboard until it shows, also you can download both shirts not just one or the other. They actually look pretty decent.

I don't see it on the home tab. Only a picture of Lil Wayne which is an iHeart Radio Ad and some kid with a little colorful fan. Also: My Gold membership ran out last month so now I'm Silver. Can you get it if you're a Silver account now? And I'm in NJ (EST).

All right, the way to get it is you must be using the standard dashboard... something I don't normally do because I try to avoid the ads. :p

Personal /facepalm moment.

I made a silver account for my wife to get the female tshirts and she was able to get them.

Thanks for the Silver help. How do you switch to standard dashboard? I beleive you mean the old white one not the silver one, correct?

EDIT: I swear this is gonna kill me. I have to go somewhere and instead I'm sitting here pressing the Xbox logo button on my controller and pressing Xbox Home over and over like a dumbass. I have yet to see any other advertisement other then: Get free Microsoft Points Rewards, Acuvue, Watch Free Movies and Fun Labs. Those are legit the only four ads in the "Advertisement" box.

Not sure if racist.

Is this a 'fan' as in fan of somebodys music, or 'fan' as in something that cools you down?

The latter.. It's a little kid holding one of those multi colored fans that blow in the wind.

Can't see the ad. I'm in Singapore but via US account, I can never find MoP ad. :(

Yes, you can get the shirts with a Silver membership. I haven't had a Gold account in six months, but I downloaded both shirts just fine.

Continue refreshing your Home tab until a box with "9.25" and the recognizable red/gold/green color scheme for Pandaland shows up. For me, it was in the lower right hand corner box. Helpful fact; I live in Japan and my internet is Japanese-based, not on a military base or anything. The image showed up for me after I logged into XBL and signed in to my profile.

Good luck, keep fiddling with it ON YOUR XBOX. Cannot stress enough that this ad seems to not appear on xbox.com at all.

Tried it on my wife's Xbox (I'm not usually an Xbox player, but I have a Live account to occasionally play co-op with her). I don't think the promotion shows up on the Xbox Live Dashboard beta... refreshed my home about 20-30 times.
